Enez (Denez) Margreta Hladik

Enez came to this life on September 25, 1930, youngest daughter of Jacob Adolf Engbloom and W. Hilma (Bostedt), Swedish settlers in the Angus Ridge area SE of Wetaskiwin.    We celebrate her Continuation Day, October 17, 2020, knowing her life is now in the angelic realm with God.  
Enez married Archie Hladik on June 15, 1957.   They were blessed with three children, Laura Jane, Marcus Andrew and Carol Lisa.  Enez delighted in her children.  She travelled to Europe with her best friends before marriage (as was the custom); she took pride in her work as a secretary, in Edmonton and at the Canada Department of Agriculture, Health of Animals branch in Wetaskiwin.  Her failing eyesight forced her to retire early when she could no longer drive.  
She found her independence and moved to Vancouver where she created the life of her dreams.  She was actively involved with the Vancouver CNIB and loved her fishing outings.  Enez moved back to Alberta when the pull of grandchildren could no longer be denied.   She lived with assistance in her last 10 years, and for her caregivers the family is ever grateful.  
Gone before her are her parents; brothers, Gustave (Gus), Bertil (Bert), and sister, Carrie.  Cherishing her memory are her children, Laura Gourlay (Bill), Lisa Barber and Marcus Hladik (Terry);  grandchildren, Liam Mahoney (Kaela), Devin Mahoney, Connor Mahoney (Kerri), Emily Barber, Kaitlyn Hladik and Chloe Hladik.  
Her wish was to be cremated.  A celebration of her life and her ancestors’ lives will take place summer 2021.  
If you wish to donate to a charity in her memory, may we suggest the MS Society of Alberta & Northwest Territories (9405 50 Street, Suite 150, Edmonton, AB. T6B 2T4) or FARRM, Farm Animal Rescue and Rehoming Movement (Gwynne)  (FARRMrescue.org)
